Cavern of the Discarded (Ratmen) SA Mini Champ.

Heya all,
It seems that the Cavern of the Discarded (Ratmen) Mini Champ spawn in the Stygian Abyss dungeon is bugged. Over the past week I've been farming there and only the Archer champion will spawn. In fact, no waves beyond the first will spawn among the 'Clan Scratch' or 'Clan Ribbon' groups. I'm posting here to inquire if people have seen these waves spawning recently (i.e. within the last week or so).

Theories abound as to why they're not spawning. It seems the Archer [Renowned] monster resets his position if you pull him too far from his spawn location. Perhaps the other two [Renowned] Ratmen do not? Maybe players are intentionally or unwittingly dragging these mobs away from their spawns (they move fast) and thus bugging the whole thing?

It would be nice to get a bit of a lead on this. Obviously I've emailed Mythic, but, true to form, they have yet to reply, 6 days on... If those waves could be spawned then it would reduce crowding, make more imbuing items available to the server, and just generally benefit everyone as a whole.

Would be great to hear if you've seen the Mages or Warrior waves (beyond the first) spawning, or if you've seen the [Renowned] mobs somewhere in the Abyss where they shouldn't be, or, worst of all, some unscrupulous character dragging them from the spawn in an intentional attempt to bug it.

The earlier you're up (closer to server-reset) the better, as the spawns are most likely to be working flawlessly immediately after the daily reset.
